At the @reformparty_uk conference, @DrAseemMalhotra made a number of claims about Covid vaccines, some of which were misleading or simply not backed by any credible evidence. We’ve fact checked a few of his claims 👇

Wonderful day at @Everyth1ngElec in Farnborough. Lots of expertise from the exhibitors and my 6'4" son sat in the back of many cars. Good food, test drive in a Tesla and we watched Jack fail to get into the back of a Renault 5!

Data quality is important in computerised medical records. Coding acute respiratory infections (ARI) is important if @clininf are going to identify winter pressures, outbreaks, epidemics and pandemics. @RCGP @OxPrimaryCare @UKHSA How do do it right eurosurveillance.org/content…

Woooah… this is a very smart/evil scam. The web savvy will immediately spot the dodgy email address, but I bet plenty won’t.

If you need to contact The Whalebridge Practice this afternoon (only) please call Sparcells Surgery on 01793 881928
I normally quite like being in the surgery beside the railway line but @networkrail have been idling a loco outside my window since 8.30am and the novelty is wearing off.

Tried a few QOF queries. It knows about protected indicator, and why the registers aren't really protected. Not quite so strong on exception reporting.
And just for fun -
ALT Certainly! Here's a limerick about Primary Care Networks. In England the GPs unite In networks they find their delight With teamwork so grand They heal and they plan For patients they fight the good fight

YOUNG PEOPLE
Remember the rules on photo ID introduced by the current govt mean ONLY people aged >60 can use travel cards, bus passes etc to vote.
If you are a young person you CANNOT use your photo travel card or bus pass as photo ID to vote.

STUDENTS: REGISTER TO VOTE RIGHT NOW!
The law is as follows.
1. You can register at home AND at your term-time address, if that's more convenient for you.
2. You can CHOOSE on the day where to vote.
3. But you can ONLY legally vote in ONE place on the day.

Really exciting - first paper as first author now published. We can write disease surveillance searches in an open and transferable framework. academic.oup.com/jamiaopen/a… ValueSets published on NHS Terminology Server. All using #FHIR standards.
Due to the weird way that this is calculated this means no increase in cash (let alone real) terms for the sixth year in a row.
The value of a QOF point also increases to £220.62 from £213.43 and the national average practice population figure is 9,964. buff.ly/43DjjVl #QOF #GPcontract
